Google might know you better than you know yourself. The company's Google Now app, making its debut on the iPhone and iPad this week, delivers timely information based on your past searches and your user information without you having to ask first. You'll see sports scores if you frequently search for a particular team, and you'll get a bus timetable if you're near a bus stop.

USA TODAY's Ed Baig compared the new iOS app to the Android app, which came out nine months ago, and said the iOS app is a good start. Google Now for iOS won't present your plane tickets or movie tickets, as the Android app does, because of conflicts with Apple's Passbook app. But Baig says he "assumes Google Now will get better over time."

2) Video game roundup

Grand Theft Auto is going Hollywood. The popular franchise's fifth installment lets users take part in the planning of a heist reminiscent of the movies Ocean's Eleven and Heat. The game lets you switch between its three main characters — Michael, Franklin and Trevor — as they steal a garbage truck, deal with cops and more. GTA V will be released Sept. 17 for PS 3 and Xbox 360.

Another well-loved video game franchise will also make its return this fall. Call of Duty: Ghosts will be released on Nov. 5 for PlayStation 3, Xbox and other game systems. The game already has a new Facebook page and a YouTube teaser trailer. Details about the game are scarce, but developers are expected to reveal more information at a May 21 Xbox event.

Are tablets a fad? BlackBerry CEO Thorsten Heins seems to think so. He told Bloomberg earlier this week that "in five years, I don't think there'll be a reason to have a tablet anymore," and tablets themselves are "not a good business model." Heins predicts that more users will gravitate toward installing big screens in their workplaces.

This isn't the first time that BlackBerry has made bold moves against the tide of the tech world. Its Q10 smartphone, launching in May, will be one of the only smartphones on the market with a physical QWERTY keyboard. But it remains to be seen whether or not consumers will flock back to "the good old days" of physical keyboards.

It's no surprise that up-and-coming comedians use Twitter to test out jokes and shape their comedy routines. But these comedy newbies face some serious competition: Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner.

The legendary duo helped kick off Twitter's #comedyfest at the Paley Center earlier this week by talking about tech and making a new Twitter account for Brooks (@melbrooks).

Brooks already has nearly 20,000 followers, but he doesn't plan on updating regularly. "He Twitters all day in his head," Reiner told USA TODAY's Jefferson Graham about Brooks. "He says more funny things all day than anyone I know. But he doesn't know how to type. You can't Twitter without typing."

But don't worry — Reiner tweets enough for the both of them. He shares snippets of his upcoming book, posts photos and gives shout-outs to famous friends, including Jon Stewart and Judd Apatow.

Astronomers are getting ready to take a look at a new hurricane on Saturn.
